A Brief Update on the History of Trampolin Hills
What happened?
2004
November: The reclassification of over 1 200 000 m2 of land is applied for in Campos del Rio, Murcia; a low-populated inland municipality with just over 2000 inhabitants in an area of 47,29 km2 .
2005
January: The company Trampolín Hills Golf Resort S.L. is formed.
May: An official agreement to allow for the building of 2200 homes surrounding a golf course is approved by the local authorities
June: A publicity campaign launched by the company leads to the first off-plan sales contracts in phase I of the resort, planned to be finished in 2008. During the next 2 years, most of the planned homes, between 1500 and 2000, are sold to buyers from different parts of Europe, each paying significant deposits of up to 60 000 € pr. home. A total of some 50 000 000 € is paid as deposits.
2006
July: A modification of the agreement is approved by the local authorities, against the protests of the opposition, who claim they have appealed the initial approval.
2007
September: The opposition denies the mayor his right to vote regarding the approval of the project, because of his dealings with the company as an estate agent.
2008
January: The Mayor of Campos del Rio, Miguel Navarro, publicly begs the opposition to vote in favour of the project. He insists it is of great benefit for the community and that the opposition have not given any reasons for their disapproval.
April: The opposition, led by Miguel Buendía, denounces the mayor and his party for deliberately delaying the procedures, awaiting the mayor’s right to vote, which will be renewed 2 years after his last dealings with the company.
May: A court decision by Judge José Miñarro García suggests the municipality is liable to pay the buyers sums equivalent of their deposits, as well as compensate the company, because of the delays.
June: The first complaints from buyers whose homes should have been finished reach the courts.
October: Local authorities decide in favour of the mayor’s right to vote.
November: The Trampolin company denounces the mayor and other officials because of the delays.
2009
January: The local authorities approve the project.
February: The Community of Murcia approves the project, on conditions that a series of modifications are made. The following months, the project is sent back and forth between offices to have the modifications obtained and approved.
November: A court (Juzgado de lo Mercantil 2 de Murcia) declares the necessary bankruptcy proceedings (Concurso Ordinario 20/09) of the Trampolin company, based on a 30 000 € debt to another company.
December: Some of the buyers are notified by mail that they need to present their contracts to be admitted as creditors, after the deadline has expired. The mayor appears in public at a gathering of buyers and media, promising the approval of the reclassification of the land the following month.
2010
February: The Association for the Affected of Trampolin Hills is formed by some of the buyers.
March: The association starts negotiations with the bankruptcy trustees as a last effort to have our contracts respected.
The official agreement approved in May 2005 is declared null and void by a judge as a response to the appeal by the opposition on the approval. The full circle has been made and we seem to be back to square one on this issue.
A report issued by the Bankruptcy Trustees estimates the value of the Trampolin Hills land to be more than 69 million €, despite the recent court ruling.
Summary: Spanish authorities have so far been sitting comfortably back watching buyers despair while a small handful of local politicians let their concerns for their own personal rivalries and benefits completely overshadow their concerns for the thousands of individuals seriously affected by their decisions, including the families who are still waiting for their homes as well as those who have lost their jobs. We, the buyers have deposited our life savings in Campos del Rio along with our trust in Spain as a modern EU country which takes her obligations towards the buyers seriously. We feel it is time to clarify who is responsible, what they intend to do and when.

Important agreement for the Trampolín Hills Project
Through conversations between representatives of the Association for the Affected of Trampolin Hills and Rafael Aguilera, co-proprietor of the company Trampolin Hills Golf Resort, we have managed to reach an agreement to cooperate regarding a formal agreement which implies the construction of Trampolin Hills. The fundamental basis for this agreement will be that of total respect on behalf of all collaborating parties, common benefit, totally on a non-profit basis and with the support of all buyers. In future meetings we will specify a plan to follow so as to coordinate the necessary negotiations with the banks, the town hall of Campos del Rio and the bankruptcy trustees. We invite each affected, members of the “Plataforma de Afectados del Grupo Trampolin”, as well as the group as a whole, to support the association in this cooperation, for the benefit of all buyers and affected.
When we have more details, we will keep you informed.
